(Trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane → HCID 67402379, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

According to Reference Example 8-12, by use of 6-methoxy-3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde (300 mg, 2.19 mmol), (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane (388 μL, 2.63 mmol), tetrabutylammonium fluoride (a 1.0 mol/L solution in tetrahydrofuran, 220 μL, 0.220 mmol) and tetrahydrofuran (6.0 mL), the mixture was stirred and reacted at room temperature for 3 hours. Then, purification by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=4/1) was performed to give 2-methoxy-5-(2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxyethyl)pyridine (Compound CT) (424 mg, yield: 93%).
